Instructions:

For the pistachio-crusted salsify, have a large bowl of vinegar or lemon water ready. Quickly peel the roots under cold running tap water with a peeler. To prevent the roots from turning an unsightly color, place them immediately in the bowl of water. The milk from the salsify will also discolor your hands, so either rub olive oil on them beforehand or wear disposable gloves. This will keep your hands beautiful!

Heat a large pot of salted water and cook the salsify until al dente, about 10-12 minutes.

In the meantime, grease a baking dish and prepare the pistachio crust. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Wash the mint, shake dry, pluck the leaves from the stems and chop finely. Chop the pistachios finely. Finely grate the cheese. Mix everything together with the breadcrumbs and the pieces of butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Mix the soup and the whipped cream together.

Lift the finished salsify out of the water and place in the baking dish. Pour the soup-whipped cream mixture over them and finally sprinkle with the pistachio crumbs.

Bake the salsify with pistachio crust in the oven preheated to approx. 200 °C for approx. 12-15 minutes.

Preparation Tip:

Black salsify with pistachio crust, for example, is a wonderful appetizer in winter time or for your Christmas menu.
